About

I launched this site in the noisy weeks leading up to the 2012 Presidential election. Think of it as a frosty, chilly, well-stocked meat locker for opinions, humor, commentary, photos, cartoons, links, and media carnage.

I’m a career media professional inside the Legacy Media Establishment, in a Super-Blue city, in a shimmering Blue state, inside a bubble: a precious urban monoculture that breeds conformity, passivity, and casual intolerance. Opportunities to participate in political discussions on a level playing field are, well…rare.

I began looking for an outlet, a place to analyze news and culture from a different vantage point. From a different planet, so to speak.

Contributing editor Primatologist, an American lawyer stationed in China, was asked by curious Hong Kong business associates to comment on current events in the U.S., referring to him as their “pundit-from-another-planet”. As he described his outsider-insider situation, the phrase lingered. At the end of our conversation I told him I would steal it, build it into a News Empire, and invite him to contribute. That day has arrived.
